[QUOTE="2001SVTTRUCK, post: 12576186, member: 122091"] What brand of rotors did you go with? Slotted rotors are better in my opinion because every set of drilled rotors I've seen end up getting hunderds of spider cracks around where they are drilled. I have EBC slotted and dimpled(drilled, but not all the way through) front and rear with the black zinc coating, Hawk ceramic pads front and rear. I do hear a "whushhhhh" sound inside the cab with the windows up when I brake from higher speeds but nothing like the clinking you described. Sounds like you might have had a pad seperate from the metal backing. As far as the rear calipers go they always come right off for me. Just use a pry-bar or long flat head screw driver to compress the piston a little bit to clear any lip on the rotor from wear. Make sure you have the parking brake OFF when removing the rear rotors. They have a miniature drum with shoes inside the rotor that is used as the park brake. [/QUOTE]
